Anti-Japanese War: Starting from Yaobai

Chapter 2923 The cunning General Maruyama!
"One-eyed dragon, your black troops will be used as mobile troops. And you must contact Sixth Brother immediately to pull out the new recruits of the black troops and be ready to go into battle at any time. The guns they use can be obtained from the arsenal. I have already informed Lao Wang."

Duanwu said to Ma Pingan, "Old Pan, contact Markov immediately to see how he is doing. See if it is possible to airlift submachine gun bullets. I am willing to pay a high price for them."

Ma Pingan said hesitantly: "Buy it at a high price."

Duanwu knew Ma Ping'an's thoughts. It was not easy for the Anti-Japanese Brigade to make money, and Ma Ping'an was reluctant to give it up.

Duanwu made a joke: "You can't catch a wolf without sacrificing a child. We must open up the situation."

"Yes, I'll go right away!"

Ma Ping'an took the order and left.

At this time, Duanwu said to the remaining Tang Jiujiu, Arou, Gao Yanan, and Wan Shanhong: "Miss Jiu and Arou still have their old tasks, assisting the transfer of the resident hospital and protecting our bottles and jars.

Gao Yanan is responsible for the safety of the wounded and the logistics personnel. Wan Shanhong is responsible for the kitchen team. And start cooking immediately. Prepare food that can be carried with you and eaten when hungry. Prepare more for the soldiers. Each person must prepare at least three days of rations. The task is heavy, you go now. If there are not enough people, call the logistics staff. Everything must be ready before tomorrow evening. "

"Yes!"

Tang Jiujiu, Arou, Gao Yanan and Wan Shanhong also followed suit.

···········
At the same time, Ma Pingan has already contacted Markov.

Ma Pingan received a call back from Markov and immediately asked, "Mr. Markov, you said last time that General Bazarov was detained? How is the situation going now? Our underground party organization has received intelligence from Chuncheng that the Second Division of the Japanese Army has rushed to our Anti-Japanese Battalion. We are in urgent need of ammunition supplies."

After a while, I got a reply from Markov: "Mr. Pan, General Bazarov's condition is not optimistic, and the situation is very serious. I have tried my best, but whether the general can be rescued depends on God's will and subsequent news.

As for the ammunition issue you mentioned, I really have no way to find other channels to airlift ammunition to you. After all, General Bazarov's incident has complicated many things."

Ma Pingan asked back: "Mr. Markov, please think of another way. Our anti-Japanese brigade is now facing a raid by the Japanese army and is in urgent need of ammunition! My brigade leader said that he can buy it at a high price. I hope Mr. Markov can think of other ways."

Markov was silent for a moment, then replied: "Mr. Pan, I understand your situation. I will use some personal connections to see if I can get you some ammunition from other channels. But this will take time and is very risky, and the price may be much higher than before."

Ma Pingan gritted his teeth and replied, "Mr. Markov, price is not a problem. As long as we can get the ammunition as soon as possible, we are willing to pay any price. Just go ahead and do it. Once you have any news, please contact me immediately."

Macro replied: "Mr. Pan, I will do my best. But you must also prepare for the worst. If the ammunition cannot arrive in time, you must also think of other ways to deal with it."

Ma Pingan replied: "I understand, Mr. Markov. Thank you anyway. I hope General Bazarov can escape from danger soon, and I also hope you can bring us good news about ammunition as soon as possible."

After hanging up the phone, Ma Ping'an returned to the combat command room with a worried look on his face and told Duanwu everything about the situation.

After hearing this, Duanwu also frowned.

But he quickly regained his normal expression and said, "Old Pan, Markov has done his best. We can't put all our hopes on him. Now we can only rely on ourselves. Fortunately, we have an arsenal. You can send a telegram to Director Wang and ask him to work overtime and produce at least 200 Type 38 submachine guns within two days." Ma Pingan nodded and said, "Well, I'll do it right away. And I think if we can delay the time a little longer, it will be more powerful for us."

Duanwu smiled and said, "I want to, too. It depends on whether the Japanese will give us a chance. The Japanese army set out from Chuncheng. If they travel normally, they will need two days to reach the Phoenix Mountain area. But if they can go to Songyuan to rest, then we will have plenty of time. Moreover, the Japanese are coming from Songyuan, and we are familiar with the route and can ambush them halfway."

Ma Pingan smiled and said, "Let's hope so. It depends on whether the Japanese will give us this opportunity."

"Hahaha!"

Duanwu laughed, but he didn't know that General Maruyama was indeed cunning and treacherous. He did not go to Songyuan, and his troops did not need to rest anymore.

In Port Arthur, his troops rested for two days, and in Fengtian for seven days. When they arrived at Chuncheng, they all took a car, so there was no need to rest.

Moreover, Lao Wanshan also realized that if he set out from Songyuan to Fenghuang Mountain, he would have no choice but to avoid several roads, and the enemy would choose to set an ambush here.

Although he was not afraid of the ambush of the Anti-Japanese Brigade, he did not want his troops to suffer too many casualties.

General Maruyama sat in the bumpy SUV, his brows furrowed, his eyes fixed on the map spread on his knees.

Outside the car window, dust was flying, and the footsteps of soldiers and the roar of vehicles were intertwined, but they could not disturb his thoughts at all.

"The route from Chuncheng to Songyuan may seem flat, but it is very easy to be ambushed."

General Maruyama muttered to himself, slowly moving his finger along the route from Chuncheng to Songyuan on the map and then suddenly moving it away.

Because he knew that once he entered Songyuan, he would become a piece of meat on the chopping board of the Anti-Japanese Brigade. Maruyama was not that stupid.

He thought for a moment, and his eyes suddenly fell on the Hukou outpost that had been captured.

Although the Hukou outpost no longer exists, it is a new attack route. If he starts from here, he can separate Laoyeling from Fenghuang Mountain and then defeat these two resistance organizations one by one.

"Hehe, this is it!"

General Maruyama sneered, then raised his head and said to the staff officer sitting in the co-pilot's seat: "Pass the order to change the marching route. We will go through the Tiger Pass Outpost. Tell the soldiers to speed up and stay alert and pay attention to all movements around them."

After receiving the order, the staff officer quickly conveyed the order to all troops via the radio.

Soon, the Japanese army began to adjust its direction and headed towards the Hukou outpost.

General Maruyama leaned back in his chair, closed his eyes, and the upcoming battle scene kept appearing in his mind.

He imagined the anti-Japanese brigade being beaten to a pulp by them, and couldn't help but reveal a smug smile on his face: "Humph, the anti-Japanese brigade? In front of me, Maruyama, they will all have only one way to go: death!"
